Bug #74693 [Opn->Nab]: is_file doesn't parse php://filter format

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74693&edit=1 ID: 74693 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: ed at rgsystem dot com Summary: is_file doesn't parse php://filter format -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Streams related Operating System: Probably ALL PHP Version: 5.6.30 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: That behaves as expected, because php://filter streams don't support stat[1]. Given that this issue got no further traction, I'm closing as not a bug. If you still think this should be supported, feel free to pursue the RFC process[2].

This is pretty normal to write code like that: if (is_file($path)) throw new \Exception("File exists"); $file = open($path); ... Unfortunately, is_file will always return false when a filter is used Note: this issue is probably affecting ALL php versions Test script: --------------- ed@test:~$ php -v PHP 5.6.29-0+deb8u1 (cli) (built: Dec 13 2016 16:02:08) Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v7.0.6-dev, Copyright (c) 1999-2016, by Zend Technologies ed@test:~$ php -r 'var_dump(is_file("test"));' bool(false) ed@test:~$ php -r 'var_dump(is_file("php://filter/read=string.toupper/resource=test"));' bool(false) ed@test:~$ touch test ed@test:~$ php -r 'var_dump(is_file("test"));' bool(true) ed@test:~$ php -r 'var_dump(is_file("php://filter/read=string.toupper/resource=test"));' bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74693&edit=1
